Intercepting pan gestures over a UIScrollView breaks scrolling
Solution 1
OK, I figured it out. I needed to do 2 things to make this work:
1) Attach my own pan recognizer to the scroll view itself, not to another view on top of it.
2) This UIGestureRecognizerDelegate
method prevents the goofy behavior that happens when both the default scrollview and my own one are invoked simultaneously.
-(BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)otherGestureRecognizer {
return YES;
}
Solution 2
I had the same problem to solve and I did this:
1) Attach my own pan recognizer to the scroll view.
2) Return YES on: – gestureRecognizer:shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:
This will allow both gestures to work. So what that means is that on vertical scroll, both your panGesture delegate and scrollView Delegate will be fired. If it is a horizontal scroll, it will only call your panGesture delegate.
3) in my panGesture delegate, detect if it is a horizontal scroll, if it is not, ignore.
Solution 3
Swift answer:
let scrollViewPanGesture = UIPanGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(onPan(_:)))
scrollViewPanGesture.delegate = self
scrollView.addGestureRecognizer(scrollViewPanGesture)
extension ViewController: UIGestureRecognizerDelegate {
func gestureRecognizer(_ gestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer, shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWith otherGestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer) -> Bool {
return true
}
}

I have a vertically-scrolling
UIScrollView
. I want to also handle horizontal pans on it, while allowing the default vertical scroll behavior. I've put a transparentUIView
over the scroll view, and added a pan gesture recognizer to it. This way I can get the pans just fine, but then the scroll view doesn't receive any gestures.I've implemented the following
UIPanGestureRecognizerDelegate
methods, hoping to limit my gesture recognizer to horizontal pans only, but that didn't help:- (BOOL)gestureRecognizerShouldBegin:(UIPanGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer { // Only accept horizontal pans here. // Leave the vertical pans for scrolling the content. CGPoint translation = [gestureRecognizer translationInView:self.view]; BOOL isHorizontalPan = (fabsf(translation.x) > fabsf(translation.y)); return isHorizontalPan; } - (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)otherGestureRecognizer { return (otherGestureRecognizer == _scrollView.panGestureRecognizer); }

Mick MacCallum over 11 yearsHave you tried
[panGesture setCancelsTouchesInView:NO];
? Simply returning YES inshouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer
might help you figure out where the problem is as well. -
TotoroTotoro over 11 yearsJust tried it, no difference.

Gagan Singh over 10 yearsthe default behavior of shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer is to return NO, so that add is unneeded
-
TotoroTotoro over 10 yearsThis is exactly the same that I recommend in my own answer.
-
P.L. about 10 yearschange the return value to
YES
and it works great. -
Radu Simionescu about 10 years@BlackRider it is not. This returns YES

atulkhatri over 6 yearsThanks
gestureRecognizer:shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer
did the trick.
